More anecdata:

I’ve worked with a handful of EB-1 holders. I wouldn’t qualify a single one as “exceptional.” Fine coworkers, sure, but to a one the justification for EB-1 strained credulity.

I have however worked with several H1-B holders of whom I would say the opposite.

The spirit of the visa is for Nobel prizes, Olympic medals and such, but in practice, it is a visa for people with immigration lawyers of exceptional ability.
